We do permit the use of sparklers outdoors only. Gillespie County has been in a severe drought and is at times under a county burn ban. In this case, the sparklers would not be permitted.

Do you require that we use vendors from an approved vendors list or can we bring our own?
We do not require that you use vendors from an approved vendors list at this time. We do, however, offer a preferred vendors list. These are vendors that we have worked with in the past and feel they provide excellent service to our customers.
Are there any other associated fees attached when renting the Lodge?
In addition to the rental fee, the Lodge requires a $1,000 refundable security deposit when booking. This is in addition to the rental price and is not part of the rental fee. We also require security personnel at each event and day-of event lability insurance. Insurance typically costs $150.
